You are losing integrity with yourself.
Here is what most women I know are doing …
You tell yourself you are going to do something for yourself.
And then you don’t do it.
You say you are going to put yourself first.
And then you put someone else’s need before yours.
You say you are going to lose weight.
And then you eat the pie because your neighbor made it specially for you.
You say you are going to start saving 10% of your income to invest in your retirement.
And then the surprise dental bill comes up and you don’t put anything in savings.
Sure, sometimes you have to make a tough call and not follow through.
But there are hidden consequences.
You won’t fully believe yourself the next time you tell yourself you are going to do something.
Then that spirals.
You make more promises to yourself, and you are not fully committed because you know you might not have your own back.
There’s only one antidote.
Especially with yourself.
You won’t have to work to believe you can achieve something if you know you will take action. That’s rock solid confidence.
Believe in your integrity to keep promises to yourself
and believe that you are worth it.
That is what propels you forward.
